New Year, New Uses for Poll Everywhere

Join us as we celebrate the most creative and engaging uses of Poll Everywhere in our end-of-year celebration webinar.

Poll Everywhere team members and power users will share their best tips, tricks, and tested techniques to plan engaging events. It’s the perfect way to spice up small meetings, lectures, townhalls, or corporate training sessions. Register for the webinar, and if you can’t make it, we’ll send a recording of the webinar once it’s available.

Real-time messaging, meet instant feedback

What happens when you add instant feedback to the collaborative, real-time messaging platform beloved by educators and professionals?

In case you missed it: Activity Flows simplify multi-step activities

Activity flows saves time and eliminates mouse clicks by inserting three distinct views of the same activity as three separate slides, all in one step. So, start with the instructions slide, then advance the presentation to display live results. Finally, lock the slide to prevent new responses.

Because each view lives on a separate slide, all you need to move between them is your keyboard or remote.

Activity flows (Beta) is available now for Google Slides (coming soon to PowerPoint and Keynote). See it in action.

Making the most of Poll Everywhere’s newest activity, Competitions

Since Competitions debuted this fall, we’ve seen some amazing demonstrations of gamification in the classroom from innovative educators.

After December 1, using older versions of Poll Everywhere for Windows and macOS may lead to unexpected behavior. To update to a supported version, select “Update” in the Poll Everywhere menu (“Check for updates” on macOS) and follow the onscreen instructions.

Enterprise users can simply contact their IT department. This change affects desktop versions of Poll Everywhere older than the following:
